Each Learning Space will need fitting out to suit the range of work to take place there and also provide opportunities for flexibility. The specification for what each space should contain is listed in Area Data Sheets.


Area Data Sheets are used to identify the requirements when fitting out Learning Spaces. The requirements should indicate what is needed for the activities to be accommodated, rather than just a list of items.


For each space listed, designers will also have to think about:

  • environmental requirements such as: heating, ventilation, acoustics and lighting
  • services required such as: electricity, gas, water
  • IT requirements
  • decoration and surface finishes
